Lesson Overview
Intracompany asset transfers (=> transactions within one company code) and
intercompany asset transfers
Lesson Objectives
After completingthislesson, you will beable to:
• ... DisplayintracompanyandintercompanyassettransfersintheSAPsystem
Business Example
The employees in the Asset Accounting department would like to familiarize
themselves with the various ways of posting intracompany and intercompany
asset transfers.
The topic of Transferring within a company codedueto thewrong asset class
having been selected is particularly interesting. An asset transfer within an
enterpriseandacrossenterpriseboundariescanbemappedusingdifferentvariants.

From release 4.6 onwards, you can create a “new asset” straightaway within
the intercompany asset transfer transaction. If you do so, you can use the
Field Transfers, as theyarecalled, to determined which entry fieldsshould be
transferredfromthesourceassettothetarget asset.

The standard SAP assumption is that transfers of relationship type 02 (=>
two company codes but one company (number)) are always transfers within
one legal unit (=> the company within a corporate group), and are therefore
alwaysrepresentedasintracompanytransfers(=>withintracompanytransfer
